DEBATERS TO BE CHOSEN AT TRIALS THIS EVENING

Test Speeches for University and Freshman Teams Will be Held at 7 o'Clock in Harvard Hall--Candidates to be Allowed Five Minutes Each

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Tonight at 7 o'clock the trials for both the University team which will debate with Pittsburg and the two Freshman teams which will debate with Exeter and Middlesex on January 12 and 17 respectively will be held. The trials for the Freshman teams will be in Harvard 6 and for the University team in Harvard 5. The candidates will be asked to speak for five minutes either for or against the proposition, "Resolved, that the United States should enter into an agreement with the former Allied Nations for the mutual cancellation of Interallied war debts."

From the seven men to be retained at the trials for the University team which will debate at Pittsburg on January 13, three men will be selected as speakers. C. H. Whelden 2G., tutor in the department of History, Government and Economics, who is to coach the team, will act as judge tonight, and will be assisted by debaters of experience from the graduate schools.

R. S. Fanning '23 has been chosen to coach the two 1926 teams, and with the help of competent judges will retain nine men from whom six will be selected in the course of the following weeks as speakers. At the conclusion of these trials a conference will be held, and work on the material will be assigned.
